NVIDIA - Revolutionary GeForce RTX 40 SUPER Series

At CES today, NVIDIA unveiled the long-awaited GeForce RTX™ 40 SUPER Series. This new GPU family, consisting of the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, and GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, promises to redefine the gaming experience and AI-powered PCs.

A New Level of Performance

Based on the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, these GPUs deliver an impressive 52 shader TFLOPS, 121 RT TFLOPS, and 836 AI TOPS, setting new standards for gaming and creative work. The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER starts at a price of $599.

Gaming and AI Technologies

NVIDIA Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) Super Resolution, Frame Generation, and Ray Reconstruction work together with ray tracing to create stunning game worlds. DLSS allows for rendering seven out of eight pixels using AI, accelerating ray tracing by up to 4x with better image quality.

The Future of PC Gaming

Matt Wuebbling, Vice President of Global GeForce Marketing at NVIDIA, emphasized the importance of the GeForce RTX SUPER GPUs for gaming enthusiasts and creative professionals. With support for over 500 RTX games and applications, users are perfectly prepared for the wave of generative AI applications.

GeForce RTX SUPER GPUs in Detail

  1. GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER: A 4K monster that enables gaming in full 4K resolution with ray tracing. Available starting January 31st for $999.

  2. GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER: Ideal for high frame rate gaming at 1440p and up to 4K. Available starting January 24th for $799.

  3. GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER: Offers 20% more cores than the RTX 4070 and is faster than an RTX 3090 at a fraction of the power. Available starting January 17th for $599.

The exact Euro prices are currently not known. However, they should closely follow the dollar prices.

Where to Buy

The NVIDIA Founders Edition design of the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER and 4070 SUPER will be available directly through NVIDIA.com and select retailers. Custom models, including factory overclocked versions, will be offered by top graphics card manufacturers such as ASUS, Colorful, Gainward, and others.

NVIDIA Avatar Cloud Engine (ACE)

NVIDIA also introduced new production microservices for the NVIDIA Avatar Cloud Engine (ACE), enabling game developers to integrate state-of-the-art generative AI models into the digital avatars of their games and applications.

New Opportunities for Developers

With ACE, developers can create interactive avatars using AI models like NVIDIA Omniverse Audio2Face™ and NVIDIA Riva Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). Developers utilizing ACE include Charisma.AI, Convai, Inworld, miHoYo, NetEase Games, Ourpalm, Tencent, Ubisoft, and UneeQ.

AI Characters in Games

Generative AI enables more vibrant and interactive NPCs in games. NVIDIA collaborated with Convai to expand the NVIDIA Kairos demo, using ACE microservices to enhance NPC interactivity.

Conclusion

NVIDIA's announcements at CES demonstrate how the company continues to push the boundaries of gaming and AI technology. With the GeForce RTX 40 SUPER Series and the new possibilities of ACE, exciting times lie ahead for gamers and developers worldwide.
